Tombstone for Marjorie Wise. In loving memory of Marjorie Backrack, who died 13th April 1974 aged 53 years. Deeply missed by her devoted husband, sister, brother-in-law, nephews, nieces, relatives and friends

Hebrew translation ""[abbreviation] Here is buried/ Malka daughter of Mr. Feivel/ passed away 21 Nisan 5734/ [abbreviation] May her soul be bound in the bond of life."

There is a discrepancy in dates. Both the civil registration birth index and the 1939 register give her date of birth as 1922 and dying age 51 whereas her tombstone suggests she was born a year or two earlier, dying age 53
